Farm Boy Porcelain Figurine by Hummel

Details

This Hummel figurine features a Farm Boy with his two pink pigs. Pigs are symbols of wealth, good fortune and prosperity. There is a German saying: Schwein gehabt, which literally means, "had pig," but idiomatically means, "good luck is at hand."

Farm Boy was originally modeled in 1937 by master sculptor Arthur Moeller and also known as Three Pals, Happy-Go-Lucky Fellow and Little Pig Driver. He was retired in 2005, and returned in 2015 only to the North American market as part of the Classics Series.
